Safety Precautions - Texas Handy Sweep 600 Manuel D'utilisation

Safety precautions

To be as safe as possible you should ALWAYS read the User's Manual before
you start the machine.
The sweeper should ONLY be used by persons who understand, and can follow
all safety precautions and operating functions as included in this User's Manual.
Never let children operate the machine. Keep pets away from machine, and make
sure that the work area is cleared from large rocks, sharp items, etc.
NEVER let the machine run in an enclosed area since the exhaust gas contains
carbon monoxide which can cause discomfort, and in extreme cases, death.
NEVER fill fuel on machine indoors, and remember the engine must be stopped.
You must NEVER fill gasoline on a warm engine, since this causes risk of ignition.
Avoid open fire when filling fuel on machine, and wipe off any spilled fuel before
starting the sweeper.
Dress yourself in sensible clothing and footwear, such as work clothes and rubber
boots. NEVER wear loose clothing when using the sweeper. The sweeper's
protection guards must NOT be removed.
NEVER touch moving parts while the engine is running. NEVER make
adjustments while the engine is running, and NEVER leave the sweeper while the
motor is running. ALWAYS remove spark plug cap before performing repairs to
the sweeper.
ALWAYS check bolts and nuts before each use.
Maintain your sweeper according to the recommended procedure, and use only
ORIGINAL spare parts. If you experience problems with your sweeper you should
ALWAYS contact your authorized dealer or service center, who will perform
repairs in a safe and responsible manner.
Always check oil level before you use your sweeper.
You must ALWAYS make sure that anyone who uses your sweeper reads this
User's Manual thoroughly before use.
Only use the machine in areas where it can be operated safely! Do not use
sweeper in areas with steep slopes, and always keep both hands on the handle
bars while working.
